You can’t just park in or anywhere near downtown for 8 hours a day. I live in LA, people. I’d have to walk or bike for miles, which would add even more time to my hour and 15 minute commute (just to go 22 miles). No way am I going to be doing that 5 days a week. I’m a 50yo woman and not in the greatest health. I also don’t even have a bike and I haven’t ridden in decades.
A few bucks a day will put a strain on my budget, especially if I tip when coming and going. Did you read the part where I already have to pay to park just so I can go to work? I already use more than one tank of gas a week because I cannot afford to live near my work. I do plan on moving a little closer, but that’s going to have to wait.
Before I asked this question I thought maybe I’d give them a lump sum every month to split, assuming they pool their tips. The guys are all really nice and have not seemed to be bothered by the fact that I haven’t yet tipped them; it’s only been a week.
Thanks for your opinions, except for you sanctimonious few.
Also, I live in a state where no one makes less than minimum wage, which I believe is now $16 an hour.
I looked into other parking locations but they are either too far or more money, like up to $80 more.
I also looked into a commuter bus, but that would add more than an hour to my commute.
I hate it here.
